temperature (℃)
1) Temperature setting of cooling water:

 Chiller 22±0.5℃(it does not have to be changed in summer)
2) Requirements on Cooling Water:
 Purified water should be used.
 In order to prevent the growth of mold that may lead to blockage,
adding alcohol solution to about 10% of the total volume is
recommended.

 If ambient temperature is between -10℃ and 0℃, we recommend to
use 30% alcohol(volume ratio), and replace it every 2 months.
 If ambient temperature is below -10 ℃ , the chiller with both heating
and cooling functions must be used, and keep it in full-time operation.
3) Other cooling system requirements:
 Check the entire water system and joints for leaks when starting the
cooling system the first time. The external water pipe must be installed
and connected according to the water inlet (IN) and water outlet (OUT)
indicated according to the laser, and otherwise the laser may not work
properly.
 If the laser is not used for a long time, the cooling system and the
cooling water inside the laser should be drained, otherwise it will
cause irrecoverable damage to the laser.
 Set the water temperature of the cooling system correctly
according to the ambient temperature. If the water
temperature is set too high, the laser will not work properly.
If the water temperature is set too low, condensation will
occur inside the laser or the laser output cable, which will
cause irrecoverable damage to the laser.
 Before staring the laser, the cooling system must work

properly and the water temperature reaches a suitable
temperature.

Timing Diagram] for timing diagram;

The laser works in external modulation mode by default after power
on.
5) Turn on the rocker switch, and the panel "power" indicator light is on
6) Wait for 20s, internal main control board circuit initialization is completed
7) Set laser power (laser power is set by 0-10V analog when AD mode is
enabled, laser power is set by serial port or Ethernet when AD mode is
off)
8) Send a light enable signal to the laser in one of the following ways
●Interface gives light enabling signal (connect 24V between pin18 and
pin20)
●serial port or Ethernet interface to issue the shutter open
command-enable light
9) The On/Off of the laser is controlled by the "modulation" signal provided
by the external mod interface;
Shutdown the laser, please refer to 4.8
4.7.4 AD Mode
The laser enters the external AD mode through the upper computer selection.
The laser power is controlled by the voltage between pin12-14 of DB25 control
interface (0v-0% power, 10v-100% power).
If the upper computer selects external AD mode off, the laser power is set by
serial port or Ethernet, and the Raycus hand-heldwelding laser will enter external
ad mode by default when powered on.

4.7.6 Red Light Control
Turn on the rocker switch, the green "POWER" indicator light is on. Waiting
for 20s, the laser enters the red-light external control mode, and a high level of
5-24V is given before the 17-20 feet. If red light internal control is selected on the
host computer, you can use the host computer to click "red light on" to turn on the
red light.
 Laser and red indicator light can be output

simultaneously.
4.8 Turning off the laser:

Please turn off the laser in the following sequence
1) Turn off the laser output enable
2) Turn off the rocker switch
3) Turn off the chiller
4) If the laser is not equipped with air conditioner, please ignore this
step; If it is equipped, please wait for the air conditioner to continue
working for 10min;
5) Put on the fiber delivery cable connector protection cap.

5 Common Alarms and solutions
5.1 Alarm display
Connect the computer and open the PC software (download the PC software
and its instruction manual, please log on the Raycus official website), after the
laser and client software establish normal communication. All laser alarm states
can be displayed on the client software interface, as shown in Figure 17. The laser
will give an alarm in the case of abnormal internal temperature, abnormal output
power, abnormal power supply, abnormal condensation, etc.
Figure 17 main interface of upper computer software

When the laser is working and any alarm occurs (except the abnormal
interlock), the upper computer software interface will also display the alarm. At the
same time, the alarm light (yellow) on the laser panel will be on, and the laser will
stop and lock.

Solutions:
Check whether the input AC voltage is normal. Restart the
laser to try when it is normal. If the alarm continues to occur,
Instruction:
AC/DC2 Alarm. Overcurrent or overvoltage inside the device
may cause this error.
ACDC2 Alarm Solutions:
Check whether the input AC voltage is normal. Restart the
laser to try when it is normal. If the alarm continues to occur,
Instruction:
Laser low / high temperature alarm occurs when the sensor in
the laser detects that the internal temperature of the laser is
abnormal. A high-temperature / low-temperature error occurs
when the temperature at the monitoring point exceeds the set
upper / lower limit.
Solutions:
High temperature alarm.
Check whether the water-cooling system is normally working,
T1/T2 Alarm
the water temperature is set correctly, and also the water
connection is correct. When the water cooling system works
normally and the water temperature drops below 30°C, restart
the laser. If the alarm continues, please contact Raycus.
Low temperature alarm.
Check whether the actual water temperature of the water is too
low. In addition, a low ambient temperature may also cause a
low temperature alarm when the laser is cold. Please wait until
the water temperature of the water rises above 10°C and then
restart the divice. If the alarm continues, please contact Raycus.
Instruction:
The laser detects that the current temperature of the
water-cooled plate is lower than the current dew point
temperature of the laser. There is a risk of condensation.
Solutions:
Stop using the laser immediately. For RFL-C100 ~ RFL-C1000
Hum Alarm lasers, please improve the working environment so that the
ambient temperature is lower than the internal temperature, and
then restart the laser (recommended to configure a separate
air-conditioned room for the laser). For the RFL-C1500S /
C2000S laser, please wait 30 minutes for the air conditioner to
run, and then restart the laser. If the alarm continues, please
contact Raycus.
